URL shortening is certainly nothing new. In fact, it’s become an absolute necessity when it comes to sharing links on social networks that limit your character count like Twitter. Get some tips from this article on MakeUseOf.com.

But rather than simply shorten URLs and present them in neat little shortened URLs, it’s also possible to do exactly the same thing to share multiple links. There are several services which make it easy to share a bundle of links together as one shortened link.

Depending on what your personal needs might be, there are several ways you can go about this. You can opt for a media-rich option which offers previews, embedded media and more, making it possible to share a slick and visually appealing list of links, or you can go for a simple list that simply features all of the links you want to share.

No matter what your needs might be, there are many reasons you might want to share multiple links from one page. Whether it’s for research purposes, life-streaming purposes, or even creating a playlist of sorts, we’ve found several more sites that will make it easy to share multiple links in one go.

Media Rich URLs With Bitly Bundles

URL shortening services Bitly offers quite a robust and slick way of sharing multiple ULRs on one page, and offers a shortened link to boot making it easy to share the page on social media services like Twitter.

Bitly Bundles can be private or public so you can use them for sharing with your Twitter followers, with people who only have the URL, or simply keep them to yourself. If you’re sharing your bundles with other users, you can always find out a little bit more about how many hits the bundle has received.

Bitly also makes it easy to add links to your bundle using a bookmarklet, and you can reorder your bookmarks with an easy-to-use drag-and-drop feature so that you can present the links exactly the way you want to. Better yet, the links are media rich, so if you add a YouTube video to your Bitly Bundle, the video is embedded directly on the page. Links feature a small preview from the article you’re sharing.
